Allison woke up suddenly in a soft bed covered with white sheets. She looked up to see Lady Eowyn passing the door.

"Wait," she said barley a whisper. Lady Eowyn appeared into her room and sat down onto a chair.

"How are you feeling Queen Allison," she said.

"I feel much better thank you Eowyn," she said. She knew Eowyn, she had met her once. "What happened?"

"Well it seems the heat took you. You have been sleeping for three days." She explained.

"Maybe I don't have any elfish qualities after all," Allison mumbled to herself. "Is Mathew here?"

"Prince Mathew was here a month ago," she explained. "But he has gone off to Helm's Deep for protection." She explained. "A group of people arrived here this morning. They have been in to check on you. Especially the elf." Allison got up slowly and put her feet to the ground as she sat on the edge of the bed.

"I think you should rest Queen Allison…"

"No I am ok," she said standing up on her two feet. Eowyn left the room once she was ok. She dressed back in her red and white dress. It was the colors of Parham. Her crown upon her head.

------------------

Allison walked down the hall way, she knew where she was going. She had been in Rohan before. She opened the doors and walked into the main hall. Legolas, Aragorn and Gimli sat at tables eating food that had been placed for them.

"Allison you're finally awake," Aragorn said as she sat down next to him.

"Yes and I feel a lot better," Allison said.

"Any word about Prince Mathew," Legolas asked.

"Yes, actually he has been here. He went to Helm's Deep for protection…" But before Allison could say another word Gandalf and King Théoden burst in arms full with two children.

"They had no warning. They were unarmed. Now the wildmen are moving through the Westfold, burning as they go. Rick, cot and tree." Eowyn yelled as she ran into the hall. They set the children down and placed food in front of them.

"Where's mama?"

"This is but a taste of the terror that Saruman will unleash. All the more potent for he is driven now by fear of Sauron. Ride out and meet him head on. Draw him away from your women and children. You must fight." Gandalf said.

"You have two thousand good men riding north as we speak. Éomer is loyal to you. His men will return and fight for their king" Now Aragorn was getting into the argument.

"They will be three hundred leagues from here by now. Éomer cannot help us. I know what it is that you want of me. But I will not bring further death to my people. I will not risk open war."

"Open war is upon you. Whether you would risk it or not." Aragorn said. A smile grew upon her face. Now King Théoden had to fight, he would feel her pain and see his people die.

"When last I looked, Théoden, not Aragorn, was king of Rohan."

"Then what is the king's decision?"

"We go to Helms Deep," he said. Legolas turned to look at Allison. A smile grew upon her face. She would finally get to see Mathew. Gandalf walked away along with Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli following him.

"Queen Allison," King Théoden said. "I heard Prince Mathew came here with your people."

"Yes he did, he was looking for protection. I know now he went to Helms Deep." She explained.

"I would have helped," he said sitting back down on his throne. "But Saruman poisoned my mind. I would have helped."

"It is ok…"
